I was laughing audibly as I read it
What Roy Griffis has done is apply a completely new and fresh perspective to the Cthulhu mythos. The Thing From HR is as snarky, humorous, darkly twisted view of the old ones. I struggle to say what genre this book fits into. Yes, there is the insanity generating horror you'd expect, but this novel is much more. Picture The Office meets Cthulhu, meets Scooby Doo. I was laughing, audibly, as I read it. It is witty, daring, and worthy of your time. - Blaine Pardoe, award-winning New York Times bestselling author
A Cthulhian romp that's equal parts Terry Pratchett and Mel Brooks... and it just might be the funniest novel I've ever read. - Upstream Reviews
I laughed far too much...you'll enjoy dark humor, dry wit, slapstick moments, and elements of romantic comedy. - Amazon 5-star review
Can a Bad Thing be a Good Guy?
Narg was content working as a Damnation Services-10 in HR. Sure, he was related to one of the Elder Gods, but a little nepotism never hurt any Thing. His life was just wailing and gibbering, right up until his Uncle needed a small favor from his nephew. All Narg had to do was go down among the humans...and pretend to be one of them.
These are not your Grandfather's tales of Eldritch Horror: this is the untold story of the ghastly, unappreciated (and entirely expendable) minor monstrosities that support the Inscrutable Plans Of Dark Gods And Elder Things Beyond The Knowledge Of Men.
The Cthulhu, Amalgamated series is a comic romp full of action and mystery, including, of course, Sanity-Shattering Horror--and that's just the paperwork. Even H.P. could not conceive of the Corporate Terrors that await The Thing from HR.
